Trade back, get an extra pick, draft Michael Floyd

This wll fill the void left by Marshall, Floyd is 6-3 220, ran a 4.47

3/12/12: Floyd answered any doubters with a fantastic Combine. His 40 time was better than expected and addressed any speed concerns. With other receivers not performing as well, Floyd moved up as the second-rated receiver in the 2012 draft.

Throughout this season, the senior displayed the dynamic skill set that makes him a mismatch against defenses. Floyd was Notre Dame's most consistent weapon in 2011 and commanded a lot of bracket coverage. This year, he caught 100 receptions for 1,147 yards and nine touchdowns. Floyd has excellent hands and concentration. It wasn't until late in the year that he had his first dropped pass of the season.

Floyd has excellent size, speed, quickness and body control. He looks like true No.1 receiver in the NFL. Making Floyd's draft stock harder to estimate are the off-the-field issues from previous years. It is difficult to determine right now how heavily NFL teams will hold those run-ins against him.

It most certainly would be a reach at 8. This is a sad day to be a phins fan guys.. Why create another hole Jeff? Why? At least Brandon brought a sense of excitement to the team on Sundays. It makes no sense to trade a player who is with out a doubt a top 10 player at his position with the plan to draft essentially for the same kind of player. I swear JI makes me want to give the whole GM thing a go.
